    Yes, it's the "get fake ones" method and the only thing that works!


    So unfortunately....no. If they go, they go and there is nothing you can do to control it. It sucks!!

    Sure. The same way someone can keep overeating and NOT gain weight.


    ..Meaning NO. Sorry. The body will lose weight where it wants to.

    Nope. Breasts are mostly fat, so if you drop fat...

    But wouldn't you rather have a fit body with a smaller, perkier chest? You know what they say about abs on a skinny guy...

    I'm afraid not, I don't think. Depending, you might need to consider Natural Breast Augmentation.

    I'm still shedding fat, so I'm having to wait to see when and if my boobage will collapse to the extent where I might seriously need to consider "tidying" it up. As yet ~ I'm okay.

    eh, boobs are overrated. I'd rather be fit and thin than have big boobs.

    Agreed on keeping the booty... but in a perfect world, I'd get to keep both!
    After 40 pounds, I've gone from a 38D to a 36C. I'm really hoping they don't get much smaller than that! I've got about 30 more pounds to lose, so I'm seriously crossing my fingers.

    Wow you are really lucky if your boobs got perkier. Mine started to sag as soon as they got smaller due to the skin being a bit looser. :cry: Thank God for push up bras is all I can say!

    I'm aiming for fit with big boobs. So far so good.

    Yes you can! But you will have to pay for them. And you will be asked "Saline or silicone?" instead of "Paper or plastic?":flowerforyou:

    I believe it is physically impossible cause our breasts are actually just fat sacs so when we start to have smaller fat cells it means we have smaller breasts.
    I'm 5'2 and I went from 189 to 152 and I now have small C's and it'll just keep happening
    At least the rest of me looks okay!
    You don't need breasts to be sexy

    I've heard strength training targeting the chest area can help make the muscle behind your chest bigger? That might help.

    In my experience it all depends on the way you store fat in your breasts.

    I weighed 286 and was a solid 38D-DD. I am now 242 and am a 36D-DD.

    Why did the band drop and the cup stay the same? Because my breasts are not very fatty. They're mostly gland tissue with a little bit of softness, so I lost in other areas, like my stomach and hips instead. There is nothing for my body to take from them.

    Yes, totally. When you get done with dropping off bodyfat, you can check out the herbal formulas that build up your breasts again. Yes they work. I used them after I had my 3rd child, when my breasts had really changed. Using the herbs, I increased by 2 sizes, and they seriously look just like they did before children....no change. I will take them again after I am satisfied with my BF%.

    Start swimming and build up your chest muscles, your boobs will be fuller and perkier.

    I went from wearing a 50C bra to wearing a 44DDD and the only thing I've done is clean eating and swimming.

    First time in my life where my boobs grew and I lost weight - usually if I lose any weight its all boob.
